F3 Saddlebag Led Wireing

[qasamm]

Ok, I don't have my F3 yet- a few more days. But I do have my add on pile accumulating in the garage. I am planning on adding the factory bags and replacing the stock reflectors with Custom Dynamics bright side LEDs that I hope to run as run/turn/brake lights. I'd like for them to be detachable with the bags.

Has anyone wired these yet and how? Custom Dynamics does not have F3 specific instructions that I have seen yet.

Thanks in advance!

I doubt that they'd have model specific instructions for this application.
As long as you've got the wiring basics down; that part is easy. The FUN part comes in the installation.
(use waterproof connectors)

Good luck, and we'll all want to see your results! :thumbup:

I will certainly try to document my projects and post the info to share. I am also wondering if it makes more sense to simply install these LEDs to the rear fender position rather than trying to do the bags with disconnects.

I am looking forward to this. I am trying to think of a way to put a splitter in so if I attach the bags I can get power to them. Of course... I have to wait until I actually get the bags to see what I have to deal with.

What type of connector is that you are using? I can't tell from the video.

Thanks!
